Auction result well in line with expectations

In March 2017 Sothebys in New York held the auction Contemporary Curated featuring works from “In Its Own Light: Property from the Collection of Ed Cohen and Victoria Shaw”, which included the work Untitled (Head)  by Marisa Merz. The price achieved of USD 118,750.00 (€ 111,002.06) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as USD 100,000.00 – 150,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Marisa Merz - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work without title, which sold at auction in July 2015 for GBP 194,500.00 (€ 275,735.67).

Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen

Im März 2017 führte Sothebys in New York die Auktion Contemporary Curated featuring works from “In Its Own Light: Property from the Collection of Ed Cohen and Victoria Shaw” durch, in der auch die Arbeit Untitled (Head)  von Marisa Merz zur Versteigerung kam. Der dabei erzielte Preis von USD 118.750,00 (€ 111.002,06) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit USD 100.000,00 – 150.000,00 angegeben worden. Für andere Arbeiten von Marisa Merz mussten die Käufer allerdings auch schon deutlich tiefer in die Tasche greifen – das bisher höchste Auktionsergebnis haben wir für die Arbeit ohne Titel beobachtet, die im Juli 2015 für GBP 194.500,00 (€ 275.735,67) versteigert wurde.
